3.7.2 Default values new route
The values in this area will be used as the default values for the parameters specified when
planning a new route.
Speed kn The default planned speed in knots for new route legs.
Lane x 0.01 NM The default planned lane width for new route legs, expressed as
hundredths of a nautical mile. (For example, if the value specified
here is 10, the default lane width would be 0.1 NM.)
Turn radius x 0.1 NM
The default planned turn radius for new route legs, expressed as
tenths of a nautical mile. (For example, if the value specified
here is 5, the default turn radius would be 0.5 NM.)
3.7.3 Other settings
Anschütz AP 20205 PLUS at COM
Specify the COM port that the Raytheon Anschütz AP 2025 PLUS autopilot is connected to.
Min. allowed turn radius x 0.01 NM
This setting specifies the minimum turn radius allowed, expressed as hundredths of a nautical
mile. This value should be determined during vessel sea trials.
Max. allowed WOL distance x 0.01 NM
This setting specifies the maximum value allowed for operator selected Wheelover Line (WOL)
distance, expressed as hundredths of a nautical mile.
Max Remote Control ROT
This setting specifies the maximum rate of turn (ROT) value allowed in the autopilot remote
control panel in TECDIS, expressed as degrees per minute.
WP warning and alarm time
This setting controls how long before a waypoint warnings and alarms are generated.
Alarm limit difference primary and secondary heading
This setting controls the number of degrees the primary and secondary heading sensor values can
differ before an alarm is generated. If the two heading sensors differ by more than this value, an
alarm is generated in TECDIS.
Alarm limit difference primary and secondary position x 0.01 NM
This setting controls the distance allowed between the two position sensors before an alarm is
generated, expressed in hundredths of a nautical mile. If the distance between the positions
reported by the two position sensors is larger than this value, an alarm is generated in TECDIS.
